About this 1962 Volkswagen Beetle Baja

Coming soon to Hemmings.com auction. We have decided to sell this on a low reserve auction thru Hemmings.com. We will at link soon.

Ground Up Custom Complete Restoration. This project has been kicking around my restoration garage for over 8 years now, just finished. I have over 40 years restoration experience, this build is second to none. Please check out the highlights listed below, no expense was spared. I have over $20,000 worth of parts invested in this project with documentation and receipts.

Highlights of this 1962 Baja Bug Custom RestoMod include the following:

ENGINE, TRANSMISSION & MECHANICAL
- Completely rebuilt 1914CC with Machine Shop Time with Painters Grinding. Properly reinforced cylinder number 3 and other aspects of the case for a 1914 build.
- High Quality internal components and gaskets throughout
- Dual Webber Carbs
- GT2 Race Heads Ported and Polished
- Carter Electric Fuel Pump
- 12V 4spd Manual Transmission from a 1967 VW completely rebuilt by Painters Grinding
- Disc Brake Conversion in Rear with new Large Bore Master Cylinder with all new lines and hardware. All new front brakes as well.
- All Mechanical Components, Tie rods, Spring Plates, Bearings etc. have been upgraded with high quality German Components where possible.
- New Wheels and Tires 235/75/15 rear 215/70/15 front
- New Oversized 12 Gallon Fuel Tank

12 VOLT ELECTRICAL
- Complete custom-made wiring harness throughout utilizing lots of shrink tube and solder, every wire has been replaced and is double or triple protected. Includes 12 Blade Fuse box with relays
- 12V 75 AMP Alternator
- All Switches have been replaced with 12 volt and are upgraded
- Front and rear 300 Watt 12 Volt outlets.
- Radio is a 300W RetroSound capable of Bluetooth and Satellite with 4 Pioneer speakers.
- NOS gages period correct, Oil Pressure, Oil Temperature, RPM, and separate Voltage Gage, warning lights are still functional as well.
- Headlights and Taillights are Custom LED.
- All New Windshield Wiper Motor and Assembly from a 1973+ Setup.

BODY & INTERIOR
- Paint is Raptor Bedliner Tinted Carribean Blue. Paint was done correct inside and out with all interior, mechanicals, glass, rubber etc removed first. Body was straight and rust free to start. This bug still has its original floor pans!
- All new German rubber throughout including Door seals, Window seals, Hood seals etc.
- Interior started with three layers of Boom Mat throughout (including Floor Pans, Roof and inside of Doors) followed by 1/2-inch-thick Jute everywhere. Then all new Carpet.
- Headliner is custom-made by SewFine in Denver and is Sea Foam Green in color.
- Front Seats came from a 1971 VW Beetle. High backed a bit safer. They were rebuilt and reupholstered along with the rear seat utilizing dense Foam and modern techniques. Front seats are heated (both bottom and back) with dash mounted controls.
-Three point seatbelts in the front.

We set this Bug up to be flat towed behind a motorhome if desired. It has Blue OX Tow Bar Mounts (can adapt to Roadmaster) integrated into the reinforced front bumper. It also has all of the lights wired to a six point plug in the front. To my knowledge this Beetle has never been flat towed behind a motorhome, but it would make an excellent toad.

I have only listed the highlights here. Every nut, bolt and fastener has been gone thru and been inspected, replaced or upgraded. This Baja Bug is as nice as they come. Please ask questions.
